[OFFTOPIC] Daily Maily Spam

2008-12-08 Thread Omer Zak
During December (since the anti-spam law came into force), I received so
far three E-mail messages from Daily Maily, without giving them
permission to continue to E-mail me.

Is there anyone who is organizing a group lawsuit against them?
At any case, can anyone recommend a guide exactly what evidence to
provide and how to sue them?

Thanks,
--- Omer

Re: VMware problems.

2008-12-08 Thread Noam Rathaus
Aharon,

I have had a few successful runs with vmware (why not switch to VirtualBox?) 
by using the vmware-any-any package available from here:
http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware/

http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware/vmware-any-any-update115.tar.gz 
appears to be the latest, but it doesn't work on all kernels, due to 
scheduler changes (I think that is the issue), so there is a 'rouge' fix for 
that as well.

But start with this.

keyboard layout settings keep being lost

2008-12-08 Thread Amos Shapira
Hi,

I finally got around to put Hebrew stickers on my keyboard and setup
Ubuntu 8.04 32-bit with Gnome to do th regular Alt-Shift to switch
between layouts and use the Scroll-Lock Led to indicate alternate
layout.

I do this through the System->Preferences->Keyboard application.

But whenever I reboot the computer it looses the settings.  Even more
so - it seems that the above-mentioned application shows the settings
that I chose as the current ones but I have to unset then reset the
layout switching combination it order to make it current for the rest
of the session.

The Led option to indicate alternate layout doesn't work at all.

What should I do in order to:
1. Make my pick permanent?
2. Make the led option work?

I'd rather do things "the right way" so if/when I upgrade or just one
of the updates gets installed I won't loose my settings.

I keep my system up to date.

Thanks,

--Amos

VMware problems.

2008-12-08 Thread Aharon Schkolnik
Hi.

I just installed  VMware-Player-2.5.1-126130.i386.rpm

When I run vmplayer, I get the message:

C header files matching your running kernel were not found.  

kernel headers for version 2.6.23.1-42.fc8 were not found.

I have the following installed:

rpm -q   -a | grep -i kernel

kernel-devel-2.6.23.1-42.fc8
kernel-2.6.23.1-42.fc8
kernel-headers-2.6.23.1-42.fc8

I am  wondering if it has anything to do with uname  -i showing i386:

uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.23.1-42.fc8 #1 SMP Tue Oct 30 13:55:12 EDT 
2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[EMAIL PROTECTED] vmware-any-any-update115]# uname -i
i386


The cpu is not a 386:

cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor   : 0
vendor_id   : GenuineIntel
cpu family  : 15
model   : 4
model name  : Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 3.06GHz



Any ideas ?


TIA
